safely-bump-deps.sh does not need to do impossibly hard things. It can just call npm: outdated, install --save-exact and/or install --package-lock-only. There's plenty of solutions…

This is the opposite of "do one thing and do it well" unix philosophy. You don't need your package manager to invoke your hook. You need _your_ tooling to invoke your hook. ./safel…

That egotist got you to create an account to post that.

A lot of odd takes in the comments. I think the most correct take is that seeing a the top bun slightly off is more realistic and honest. Respecting your customers, even in adverti…

Mos takes it even further, the top bun is completely off.

The problem with MCP isn't MCP. It's the way it's invoked by your agent. IMO, by default MCP tools should run in forked context. Only a compacted version of the tool response shoul…

What part of MCP do you think is over-engineered? This is quite literally the opposite opinion I and many others had when first exploring MCP. It's so _obviously_ simple, which is …

This comment defines the next era of software development.

> It's significantly more wicked to pretend that tests, treatments, and more aren't done by healthcare workers (yes, even private ones), and to inundate them with unimportant medic…

Then here's an idea: instead of hiding that information, you can explain it to the patient. You have no authority to treat your patient like a child.

> We already have an extreme shortage of available healthcare workers. We don't need to stress them further because 20% of the population suddenly decides they need 80 elective sur…

If you need a case study on "kill your darlings", read this.

It's easy to think of notation like shell expansions, that all you're doing is replacing expressions with other expressions. But it goes much deeper than that. Once my professor ex…

Kind of cool for a presentation deck. Sorely needs keyboard navigation support though.

Who said a COBOL system is prone to fraud? Incomplete and inaccurate data is prone to fraud. Talking about COBOL is missing the point.

Musk said: “Crazy things like just cursory examination of Social Security and we’ve got people in there that are 150 years old.” He qualified this claim as a “cursory examination”.…

This is a PR maneuver that Microsoft can bring to the table to strike a deal with Apple. They want everyone to think of the iOS + App Store as just distribution. They want everyone…

It's disingenuous in that they are both platforms doing the same thing. Apple could argue that it's Microsoft's 30% cut that makes it impossible for developers to get their games p…

I’m not saying render the scene. I’m saying take your measurements from where the camera is (or would be).

I’m not saying render the scene. I’m saying take your measurements from where the camera is (or would be). It would require no extra infra or compute.

It never made sense to me why they raycast from the car. Humans don't play this way. The car is an abstraction the model doesn't need to care about it. It literally doesn't matter …

Doing stuff that makes people happy makes people happy. In other news, water found to be wet.

I wonder why it's being framed the way it is by nytimes...
